Thinkpads Forum

Hi folks

Can anyone share with me where I can purchase x220 in New York City? Will be there for a few days, before proceeding to Philly. I can't seem to find any Lenovo outlets... is there any where I can mix and match the kind of hardware configuration that I want?

Also, just wondering, where in NYC or Philly in general should I go to, to get tech bargains?

Don't know if it's possible to view them ahead of purchase or not. You might try J&R...

thanks... but it seems like JR's variety is not very good? i'm looking for x220 with i7 at least...

i am now thinking of buying through ebay and delivering it to my hotel... wonder if it'll work that way? saw a couple of posts for that...

Thinkpads are difficult to see in stores. If I were an ebay seller I would not ship it to a hotel room. I don't think the i7 will make any difference, but the one listed on J & R does not have the IPS screen.

J&R is prob the only legit (decent policies on returns etc.) to get it in NYC. Can also try university bookstores in either city ie Columbia, NYU and Penn.
